UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 11-1863
In re: MELANIA CORCINO,
Petitioner.
On Petition for Writ of Prohibition. (5:05-cr-00260-BO-2)
Submitted: January 31, 2012 Decided: February 6, 2012
Before SHEDD, AGEE, and WYNN, Circuit Judges.
Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Melania Corcino, Petitioner Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Melania Corcino petitions for a writ of prohibition
seeking an order to stop the enforcement of a detainer lodged
against her by immigration authorities following the completion
of her federal sentence. We conclude that Corcino is not
entitled to relief.
The writ of prohibition is a drastic remedy and should
be used only in extraordinary circumstances. In re Vargas,
723
F.2d 1461, 1468 (10th Cir. 1983). Further, prohibition relief
is available only when the petitioner has a clear and
indisputable right to the relief sought.
Id. We have reviewed
the petition and conclude that Corcino has not made the
requisite showing for issuance of the writ. Accordingly, we
deny the petition for a writ of prohibition. We further deny
Corcino’s motion for appoinment of counsel and dispense with
oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are
adequately presented in the materials before the court and
argument would not aid the decisional process.
PETITION DENIED
